Give more kids the chance to explore
For a lot of us, the outdoors was a big part of growing up. For many kids, a school trip is where that starts. But with school budgets squeezed and the cost of living rising, those trips are slipping out of reach for low-income families. That's why we're supporting YHA's No Child Left Behind appeal through Pennies, a leading charity that makes it easy to give micro-donations to good causes.
£50 = one night away
An overnight trip for a kid who'd miss out.
£100 = two nights away
Twice the time outdoors.
£1m = 10,000 kids exploring
Help YHA reach their target.
What is Pennies?
Pennies is an award-winning fintech charity with an important mission: to protect and grow micro-donations, ensuring people have digital ways to keep donating the small sums of money that are so vital to charities.
As a trusted leader in digital micro-donations, Pennies has created a movement that encourages giving, offers businesses a powerful way to demonstrate social purpose, helps charities make a greater impact, and gives the public a way to donate without cash, as part of their daily lives.
In an increasingly cashless society, Pennies’ ‘digital charity box’ gives customers paying by card or digital wallet a convenient way to add a small donation to their purchase, when shopping with participating retailers. Whether in-store, online or in-app, it’s a simple, affordable, data-free way to donate, with 100% of funds raised going to charity.
Millions of people are now using the digital charity box. To date, Pennies has enabled more than 100 million micro-donations, raising millions of pounds in much-needed additional income for charities in the UK and Republic of Ireland. Together, payment providers, retailers and their customers are helping hundreds of charities make a meaningful difference to the causes and communities they serve.
Because micro-donations matter, now more than ever.
